Then I wanted to take the top off of 'This' on a nice day, so I put it on the 'Other'...

The next should be "problem" because that's what you have. It must be something in the water up there in Oklahoma. All you guys up there have multiple boxsters

Sure, Redtele has a warehouse full, Retro has a nice pair, and I have 4.5, but you have bought HOW MANY?
At least it's more practical than Hummel figurines or sailboats.

I had to do some travel for work and decided to take THIS rather than a rental car. My drive took me across eastern Oklahoma, western Arkansas, a moment in Texas, and into Louisiana.
I had planned on driving the length of the Talimena Scenic Byway on my way home, but I was worn out from the trip, so just cut through the middle of it. A nice scenic twisty road and I plan to go back.


I pulled over a couple times to let slow trucks get further ahead of me.
At one stop, a State Trooper stopped for moment just to make sure all was okay - then he accelerated away, clearly enjoying the road.


Oklahoma isn't all flat...



Heavy thunderstorm ahead, time to take the bra off before it gets soaked.


Well north of the storm and the sun is setting.



A nice drive and a good car for the trip, now to make time for some cleaning and polishing in the days ahead.

Totally disagree, but that won't get any better than this.

Great pcs!

Eastern Oklahoma and especially Western Arkansas have some great Porsche roads. I'm jealous because im always in the F350 when I'm driving them

Even southwest Oklahoma has its own unique beauty. This is in the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge about 20 miles west and a bit north of Lawton. The southern border of the Refuge borders the northern boundary of the bombing range where I work.

Yes, it was at Hallett and we had a great time. It was really good to have Rick there to show us the ropes and share his raceport. I'm planning to do a 'My first DE' post rather than detail it here. Both cars held up well, even with THAT doing a little mudding in the grass off turn 1. Wish I caught that on camera...
I plan to Volunteer for a day during Octoberfast, looking forward to getting together and seeing some of the spec racers.






I had a friend make magnetic numbers for us, but after he started, he found that he only had enough material on hand for two. I hand-cut the rest from a sheet of 3M wrap vinyl.
